A few of our patients enjoyed a special visit to SeaWorld San Diego, where they got up close with bottlenose dolphins—& it went swimmingly! ?? Seaworld San Diego has been inviting our kiddos to participate in the Dolphin Interaction Program (DIP) since 2007 when Joy Clausen Soto, a SeaWorld dolphin trainer who battled & overcame non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma & underwent treatment at a Children’s Hospital in Southern California, started the program with other SeaWorld zoological team members. After their dolphin experience, the children & their families got to spend the rest of their day enjoying the park. ??

Check out the latest research from our Division of Respiratory Medicine & Center for Healthy Sleep.???
Pediatric Pulmonologist and Sleep Medicine Specialist at University of California, San Diego
Excited to share our study identifying racial/ethnic and sex disparities in OSA among a diverse adolescent sleep lab-based population in San Diego Rady Children's Hospital-San Diego UC San Diego School of Medicine. We found increased OSA severity in Hispanic and Non-Hispanic Asian/P.I. adolescents even after adjusting for age, sex, BMI percentile and a socioeconomic measure, compared to NH-White peers. These findings highlight the need for further community-level studies, ensuring adequate representation of Hispanic and Asian adolescents. Thankful for the commentary by Dr. Tue et al. https://lnkd.in/g_edWZAr and the support by the Southern California Center for Latino Health https://lnkd.in/g2Awes8X
